Spent the last few days with my nephew in North Carolina. Here he is trying to make
Origami planes.
Watermelon break.
Made these custom coloring sheets for
Mateo given his love for trucks.
Used my trusty sets of
Faber Castell Pitt Artist pens to color a few pop-up card backdrops for Tato's playtime. This one was done right after watching
"Clash of the Titans" which turned out to be a pretty entertaining movie.
Every morning a couple of new pop-up cards would be waiting at the breakfast table.
"Oh no! no more filling left!", and
Tio Pork Bun already finished the other two buns.
Checking out the dragon pen we found at
Target.
Doodling with the ballpoint pen.
Enjoying my travel set of
Caran D'Ache Neocolor II watersoluble crayons.
Coloring some truck drawings.
Train ride at the park.
Taking a
Faber Castell Albrecht Durer watercolor pencil for a spin.
So long as they are non-toxic, I have no qualms about sharing my artist grade art supplies with the little one. Of course one must remain alert to avoid accidental staining of the surrounding area. Keep in mind though that once you get kids to appreciate the performance of artist materials, they might come to prefer them over the more inexpensive kid grade tools. I would recommend keeping the good stuff at home and using the easily replaceable more affordable stuff in take-along travel kits
